The sea isn’t always bluer on the other side.
When Calliope seeks out the truth about the history of the royal family of the mer, she learns she can transform into a human. She travels through a portal to the human realm of Elswyth, leaving behind her life as a princess.
On the other side of the portal, she is greeted by her long lost uncle, Arik. Her mother kept everything about him a secret, so she is surprised when her uncle steals her magic and leaves her to die.
With the return of The Delmari, a dangerous sea monster, Killian Darksea travels to the island where it all began to finish what his grandfather started. He is shocked to find a woman stranded on the island that the monster claims as his own.
The two quickly realize they have more in common than expected—specifically, they discover that their enemy is one in the same. Calliope teams up with the Darksea pirates to get vengeance on the man who stole everything from her.
When her uncle conjures a storm and threatens to drown the world, will the little mermaid and the pirate Captain be able to stop the rains before it is too late?
The Vengeance of Alari is a complete stand-alone novella in the Realms of Elswyth Series. If you are a fan of little mermaid retellings, mermaid X pirate captain, bad ass women, banter, and a happily ever after you do not want to miss out on this book is for you!

Okay, fellow bibliophiles, if you're like me and constantly on the hunt for your next dark romantasy fix, especially after binging series like 'From Blood and Ash' or searching for your next pirate captain obsession, then you absolutely need to hear about 'The Vengeance of Alari.' This book isn't just another Little Mermaid retelling; it's a full-throttle adventure that dives deep into betrayal, magic, and an undeniable connection between a mermaid princess and a pirate captain. I was completely hooked by Calliope, our mermaid princess. She's not your typical damsel in distress; she's fierce, driven by a thirst for truth, and ready to fight for her destiny. After a shocking betrayal by her own uncle, who strips her of her magic and leaves her for dead in the human realm, her journey for vengeance truly begins. This is where the 'bad ass women' promise from the blurb truly shines – she's navigating a new, dangerous world, dealing with profound loss, and refusing to back down, even when facing overwhelming odds. Her transformation isn't just physical; it's a powerful evolution of her spirit. And then there's Killian Darksea. If you've been searching for a pirate captain who gives off those brooding, morally gray vibes, similar to what you might find if you're into 'Captain Hook: The Cursed Tides,' then Killian is your man. He's got his own dark past, a family legacy to uphold, and a mission to complete tied to the monstrous Delmari. The way his path intertwines with Calliope's is just *chef's kiss*. Their dynamic is electric – full of sharp banter, initial suspicion, and a slow burn that builds into something truly epic. Their alliance against a shared enemy creates such compelling tension, making you root for them every step of the way. It’s definitely a tale where characters grapple with their own version of 'sin' and search for 'salvation' amidst chaos, finding strength and purpose in each other. The world-building is fantastic, drawing you into both the shimmering aquatic realm of the mer and the rugged, mysterious human island of Elswyth. With the resurgence of a dangerous sea monster, political intrigue, and a powerful villain conjuring catastrophic storms, the stakes are incredibly high. Every page is packed with action, magic, and emotional depth. It’s a fast-paced novella, but it packs so much punch, delivering on its promise of 'mermaid X pirate captain' romance with a satisfying 'happily ever after' that feels earned. It's a complete stand-alone, which is perfect if you want a complete story without committing to a long series right away, but it also leaves you wanting to explore more of the intriguing Realms of Elswyth. Seriously, if you're craving a dark fantasy romance with a strong, resilient heroine, an irresistible pirate, and plenty of action, magic, and a touch of forbidden love, do yourself a favor and pick this one up. It’s available on Kindle Unlimited, so there’s no excuse not to dive in and get lost in this thrilling tale!
